Now, our technology can be integrated into our fashion.<\/p>\n<p>Fashionable women want their tech to be part of their their style, not take away from it. Up until recently,\u00a0our typical \u00a0gadgets have been ugly. Now, tech makers are teaming with fashion designers to conceal our tech in beautiful accessories.<\/p>\n<p>We ask a lot of our cell phones. They are our hot-spots, navigation, music players, video cameras, book readers, and communication devices, so they don\u2019t always have enough juice to get through a full day. Many women carry chargers or charging devices like the Mophie \u201cjuice box.\u201d\u00a0 They are ugly, hard to manage and take up space.<\/p>\n<p>Now these charging devices and other tech items are concealed in stylish accessories and jewelry. There are handbags that can charge cell phones, watches that link to email, fitness trackers that are concealed in jewelry and more. Here are some of the items I found on the market.<\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sarahshah.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/PhotoGrid_1410512349879.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright  wp-image-1912\" alt=\"Charging Purses\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sarahshah.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/PhotoGrid_1410512349879-300x300.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"240\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.sarahshah.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/PhotoGrid_1410512349879-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.sarahshah.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/PhotoGrid_1410512349879-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/www.sarahshah.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/PhotoGrid_1410512349879.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/a>Mighty Purse<\/b> &#8211; Handbag that charges your cell phone or tablet<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Charger is concealed in a clutch-size purse<\/li>\n<li>It\u2019s easy to use &#8211; charge it up from any USB plug on your computer, car charger or even wall plug.<\/li>\n<li>Then charge any cell phone or tablet with a mini usb connection inside the purse while you are on the go.<\/li>\n<li>Bag is available from The Houstonian Hotel Club Sports Shop (713-685-6719) or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mighty-purse.com\">mighty-purse.com<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Bag with charger $99, iPhone adapter is extra<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>EverPURSE<\/b> &#8211; Handbag that charges your smart phone (for iPhone 5\/5s\/5c or Samsung Galaxy S4)<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Charger is concealed in a clutch-size purse<\/li>\n<li>No cords, connectors or adapters are needed to charge your phone or the bag<\/li>\n<li>You must get the right bag for your phone<\/li>\n<li>Bag and charging mat: $249, <a href=\"https:\/\/everpurse.com\/shop\">Everpurse.com<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sarahshah.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/PhotoGrid_1410513117906.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright  wp-image-1911\" alt=\"Samsung Gear 2\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sarahshah.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/PhotoGrid_1410513117906-300x300.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"240\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.sarahshah.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/PhotoGrid_1410513117906-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.sarahshah.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/PhotoGrid_1410513117906-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/www.sarahshah.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/PhotoGrid_1410513117906.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/a>Samsung Galaxy \u201cWatch\u201d<\/b> &#8211; Samsung Galaxy Gear2<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u00a0\u201cWatch\u201d syncs with Samsung galaxy phones and tablets.<\/li>\n<li>This is so convenient.
